This Old Heart of Mine (album)

This Old Heart of Mine is the fourth studio album released by The Isley Brothers in 1966, on the Tamla (Motown) label. The album, their first with the seminal Detroit-based music label, yielded the Isleys' biggest hit in their early period with the title track, "This Old Heart of Mine (Is Weak for You)". Other charted singles including "Take Some Time Out for Love" and "I Guess I'll Always Love You". The album's cover was not controversial at the time, but was criticized years later by activists because it did not depict the three black brothers, instead using a picture of two white teenage lovers on a beach. Defenders say this was/is irrelevant since it was an artistic choice only. The Isley Brothers are today considered another one of the seminal soul groups of their era.
